Bug#1024521: python-tomli-w: reproducible-builds: build path present in .deb files

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Source: python-tomli-w
Severity: normal
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: buildpath
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs at lists.alioth.debian.org

The build path is present in directories of the python3-tomli-w .deb:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/diffoscope-results/python-tomli-w.html

  ./build/1st/python-tomli-w-1.0.0/debian/python3-tomli-w/usr/bin/
  vs.
  ./build/2/python-tomli-w-1.0.0/2nd/debian/python3-tomli-w/usr/bin/

I suspect a toolchain change of some kind, as it only recently started
failing with 1.0.0-1; the first failure to build reproducibly is from
2022-11-18:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/history/python-tomli-w.html

At first, I suspected a change in "flit" due to the timing of when the
failure started happening, but I tried downgrading to the older version
and it exhibited the same issue, so that seems unlikely.

The folks on #debian-python suggest it is using an older build system,
and possibly updating to the newer build system would help fix or
troubleshoot the issue.

Thanks for maintaining python-tomli-w!

live well,
  vagrant
